The forward and inverse kinematic model of a multi-flexible-link robot arm for varying payloads are each approximated by using artificial neural networks. The tip position is predicted from the joint angles and strain signals. The strain measurements allow the reaction to changes in the payload. Thus, the kinematic models can be applied in case of varying payloads. The closed loop controller corrects the joint angles at the target pose based on the pose predicted by the forward model and archives an average pose error of less than 3 mm.
